Hacking DSTT for $6.99

I'd say it's a fake. The DX page basically confirms it.

Version note: This is the CN DSTT.com revision of the DSTT cart. The NDSTT.com version is available here.

I'll email DSTT and check.

Fake or not, 7 bucks??? Damn they may as well give'em away

When compared to the ndstt.com site, it seems that the $6.99 one is fake.

However the $8.43 one seems to pass the test!

So you can basically pay $1.44 more for a real one!

I wouldn't put it past dealextreme to send you a $6.99 clone even though you ordered a $8.43 real one.

Neither would I, specially considering the website for the other card says it comes in a box and not blister packaging.

Here's the bit from the cndstt.com site

"2008 After September, DSTT divides into two companies, the first edition packing continues by our company to operate"

and the pics all show it as coming in a box, not a single shot of blister packaging but DX are showing that blister pack. I think they're just trying to make it look more official.

edit : I just check out the cndstt.com site a bit more. They've got 2 types of firmware on there, one's the official DSTT 1.16 firmware and one listed as R4 on DSTT firmware. Just checked out the R4 on DSTT one and it's YSMenu. Not only that they also have roms, there's a link to the site inside the firmware files.

Easy, quick and simple. Just the way I like it.

 

[Tanas]

Dealextreme know that its fake and they arn't even trying to hide the fact.

 

[nightclaws]

[rasputin]

I'm actually tempted to buy it now

 

[TrolleyDave]

lol They practically are aren't they! I think it's the company they got the gold dot clones from. Isn't the splitting of the company the same story they gave to people who complained about them?

I was just reading the comments posted about the card. There's an awful lot of them saying "Stop saying this is a clone, it's real and just another company blah blah" type stuff. I wish I could meet those people IRL, I could sell them knock off Levi's and just use the excuse that it's another company that split from Levi's and went into business on their own!

 

[martin88]

So are both CNDSTT.com ($6.50) and NDSTT.com ($7.25) fakes?
